mitra 1 . mitra, as, m. (originally mittra, fr. rt. 2. mid, or according to some fr. rt. mith + tra; cf. medin), a companion, associate, friend, (in this sense generally neut., except in Ved.; see am, n. below); N. of an Āditya or form of the sun (as a Vedic deity commonly associated with Varuṇa, both Mitra and Varuṇa being frequently invoked together with another of the Ādityas called Aryaman; Mitra is regarded in Ṛg-veda VIII. 47, 9, as son of Aditi; elsewhere he is called the deity of the constellation Anu-rādhā, and father of Ut-sarga: according to Sāy. on Ṛg-veda 1. 89, 3, Mitra presides over the day as Varuṇa over the night; hence the closest con- nection subsists between these two deities, who are more frequently invoked together than Varuṇa is invoked singly; together they uphold and rule the earth and sky, together they guard the world, toge- ther they promote religious rites, avenge sin, and are the lords of truth and light; associated with Aryaman, they are represented as awful deities, haters, and dispellers of all falsehood; in only one hymn, Ṛg-veda III. 59, Mitra is celebrated alone, and is there described as calling men to activity, sustaining earth and sky, and beholding all creatures with un- winking eye; in Ṛg-veda VII. 61, 1, the sun is described as the eye of Mitra-Varuṇa); the sun; N. of a Marut; of a son of Vasiṣṭha; of the third Muhūrta; (ā), f., N. of an Apsaras, (also read Citra); N. of the mother of Maitreya and Maitreyī; N. of one of the wives of Daśa-ratha, (cf. su- mitrā; according to some, in this sense mitrī); (am), n. a friend, (aurasam mitram, a friend con- nected by blood relationship); an ally, the next neighbour of a king; epithet of a mode of fighting, (also read bhinna); friendship (Ved.).
